- At 100 days old, the Northern Royal Albatross chick from the Top Flat nest goes on a walkabout to explore the headland. As the chicks get older, they begin to wander further and further from their nest sites. They may even venture to areas out of view from the camera for periods, but they won't stray too far from their natal nest at this age.
RoyalCam was set up in January 2016 by the Department of Conservation and the Cornell Lab has been collaborating with DOC since 2019 to bring the cam to life. To learn more while watching, view the cam at

*******************************
Royal Cam is a 24-hour live stream of a Northern Royal Albatross nest during the breeding season at Pukekura/Taiaroa Head on the southeast tip of New Zealand's South Island.
This season (2023-24) features two nests in view. At the main site to the left of the frame, male LGK (named for his colored leg band combination: Lime/Green/Black) and female LGL (Lime/Green/Lime) return to the Top Flat nest site, where they are caring for a single egg laid on November 7.
Nearby to the right, male WYL (White/Yellow/Lime) and female BOK (Blue/Orange/Black) have been tending to their egg since it was laid on November 14 at the Top Track Flat site. This site is currently obscured by tall grass, which will die down and open up the view as the season progresses.

I love when they start ambling about. Their feet aren’t made for land and it gives them an adorable ‘wobble’.
🥰
❤
They sure do waddle when they walk! So stinking cute ❤
Adorable ❤
Какая прелесть🥰
They acknowledged each other but not getting too close.
They are big balls of fluff ❤❤
Such an adorable explorer~👍
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
TF is busy doing the Albie shuffle again!
Lol "Albie shuffle"😊
you can slowly see the feathers under the down. I always find it very interesting. Since I live in Germany it is always exactly different in time. When it gets dark here, the sun rises in New Zealand. Many kind regards
Little lovelies😊❤
They grew up so fast! Perfect fluff balls waddling on those big feet!
❤❤❤❤
Nice to see FT moving around! It's exercise for his knees!😊❤🐥🕊️.
A fitness walk for TF 🥰 and discover new horizons 🌿❤
Sharon Shneyer, Could you please tell me some information about that strip of land that is always seen in the videos?
I asked Lady Hawk, not that she would know, but never received an answer.
Thank you Cornell.
